Edit** he's playing small cities in my province and the neighboring one but isn't coming to the second most populous city in the western part of the country.
Shocked.

In most cases, I think that's still how it works.

I don't think that there's anything lower than trotting out the bankable hits of people's younger years at around the time when they have kids who can enjoy it.

Personally, I hope that this all encourages more people to cook. We're far from only cabbage and onions being affordable, and there are plenty of amazing crock pot recipes out there for people who don't have the time.

Nobody was ever going there for the food, guys. They went because it was cheap.
100% on Pho. Also, there's affordable pub fare to be found out there. Menus are built to be versatile and local businesses can make those decisions quickly. When you're running a single, popular establishment that's supported by liquor consumption, your overhead probably isn't as high as a l as large corporation trying to reorient itself.

I'm not used to seeing so many people begging outside if the grocery store as have been over the last year and some.

Also, I'm betting that any institution having its bottom line/security threatened won't report on specific topics. Just look at Al Jazeera and Katari domestic affairs.

Blackmail, coverup, lies and evidence that our institutions stopped functionally doing their jobs about 15 years ago.
VibRibbon was such an interesting game. Shenmue left me with no appetite for QTE (ever again), so I'm happy that watching a Let's Play let me sit back and take it in. I don't think I've seen a scribble aesthetic quite like that before. The closest analog in my mind was Rez.
Pepsiman was also a standout and it reminded me of something that I can't put a name to. I feel like I saw a Japanese Wii title that starred the muscley dudes from Cho Aniki and featured the same gameplay. Does anyone know what that is?
